just because someone displays something that has a negative connotation to most, does not mean that the person displaying said object thinks or believes that way. and to lump that person in with those who do is no worse than the group of pepole who perverted the symbol to begin with.

that's like saying someone shouldn't display a german flag. or a swastika. the swastika dates back to ~9500BC. it means lucky or auspicious object. it is used in buddhism as well as hinduism not to mention many different civilizations and cultures.

or that one shouldn't display their on nations flag. i'm an american, and i love my country, but am i proud of everything they've done or everything they stand for? HELL NO! so should i not display that flag either?

getting offended is a personal choice anyhow.
